Dancing About Architecture: Buffalo LinkStation
I have to agree with Eric's recommendation for Memeo that comes with the Buffalo LinkStation. It's so fire-and-forget. I just set it to copy MyDocuments and my media off to some places on my network at home. It accumulates the changes I make all day, and as soon as I hit the home wi-fi - it backs everything up automatically. Exactly how you'd want this to work. The Buffalo LinkStation is cool too. It's a network appliance that just can provide windows share directories, and also can act as a print server.

My HD DVR
the following story was HD Beat today, and I had to think how it applied to me. I absolutely love having a Comcast HD DVR. Tivo so missed the boat by not licensing to Comcast. I've been a Tivo owner since the very first version, but I have a hard time thinking why i'd want to buy a Tivo over the Comcast HD DVR.
Yes! I watch a lot more HD with the DVR than I would otherwise. I can't stand watching std TV anymore, so I pretty much only record stuff in HD, so that's really all I watch, aside from the GOL channel. but I got spoiled watching the world cup in HD as well, so I'm even having a hard time watching GOL in std def.

ah yes, the AC to USB converter
Well if everything should charge via USB, this is the missing link

everything should charge via USB - everything
It would make all of our lives a lot easier. Well, those of us who travel anyway. Too bad I have never found an electric razor that works worth a shit. Really. They all suck.

PSP Connect Service Incoming - Kotaku
We all knew this was coming. Very cool. The PSP is such a great movie watching device. Let's see if Sony can attract the same level of interest that the iTunes store has.

a moment of silence for the Rio brand
a agree with Gizmodo. i feel a little sad about Rio music players going away, simply because my old Diamond Rio PMP 300 was my first, and i played the shit out of that thing, even with only 32 MB of RAM.
that said, i wouldn't buy one of these players today, as they just aren't up to snuff with what Apple and Samsung are offering. Hold the consolation gifts; I'll get over it.
